Esendex provider
For the purpose of sending and receiving SMS messages MedITEX uses the services of Esendex provider. User account needs to be created and this can be done on the <a href="http://www.esendex.com">Esendex website</a>.
Parameters which determine each user account (account credentials) are:
- Username: An email address used in the process of user account creation.
- Password: A password assigned to a user via Confirmation email. It can be changed afterwards.
- Account reference: An array of characters beginning with "EX" which is also assigned to a user via Confirmation email.
Once user account is created, it is possible:
- to send 20 SMS messages for free
- to purchase a package of SMS messages according to your needs
- to configure a Virtual Mobile Number which will be used for receiving messages
After first purchase it is also possible to assign a name to your user account (for example, the name of a clinic) which will be displayed as a Sender name of a message.
MSG91
Exporting PHP files
To export PHP files for both recieving and incoming messages, and getting status reports of sent SMS, first choose MSG91 as the SMS provider under System->Interfaces->Communication->SMS account.
Delivery status via Callback deactivates the manual status lookup and thus increasing the performance of the Communications form as MedITEX won’t have to request the status of all pending SMS.

Mobile number format
Given that SMS recipient's phone number has to begin with international country calling code, in case that phone number does not contain the code already, MedITEX will add it automatically if it is entered in the section International country calling code.
